Description of Guided Programs: Klondike Rock Climbing & Rappelling, Adventure Park & Zip Lines, and Skagway Adventure Hike:
Alaska Mountain Guides Adventures offers several Skagway based tours to cruise ship guests visiting during the summer season:
General Overview of Tours:
The typical duration ranges from 2.75 hours to 3.5 hours. Our site is located just a few miles outside the town of Skagway and a short drive from the waterfront where we collect most of our guests (predominantly coming off cruise ships).
In general, guests participating in one of our tours are greeted by their guides at one of the three cruise ship docks in Skagway and transported to the site in 15 passenger vans or 24 passenger buses. During transit, the driver and guide(s) provide a variety of historical information about Skagway and the surrounding area in addition to information on the mountains, geology, and natural environment of the region. The driver and guide(s) will also introduce AMG, the company background, and the variety of trips and programs that are offered.
Once we reach the site, guests unload in a private parking area along the Klondike Highway and take a short 5-minute uphill hike to our kiosk where they are issued helmets. Once guests don a helmet they then continue on to the base of the climbing area or zip line staging area where they are provided with all necessary climbing or zip line equipment to participate in the tour. The guests then receive a safety briefing and instruction from the lead guide before proceeding with their respective tours. Refreshments and a snack are also included and consist of hot chocolate and trail mix. On any given day we may run up to four overlapping climbing trips at a time totaling up to 16 rock trips and 15 zip line trips daily.
